"Dance With Somebody" still is on everybody ears, but it has now been 5 years since Mando Diao's biggest hit (# 2 on the charts; platinum status!) It was released back in 2009.
Now, finally, are the Swedes, the two masterminds Gustaf Noren and Bjorn Dixgård back! "Black Saturday" is the first single from the album "AELITA" that will be released 02 May.
"AELITA" is a Russian Synthesizer from the 80s, and it is this era also that characterizes the sound of "Black Saturday". Like a mix of New Order and Billy Idol, and yet typical Mando Diao with the unmistakable vocals. Mando Diao provide their the next hit without doubts.
"There is no typical Mando Diao sound - the band is redefining itself from album to album" (Gustaf Noren). This is more evident on "Aelita" and "Black Saturday" provide us with the first hit that probably soon will replace "Dance With Somebody".
Dimitri Kechagias review: Mando Diao are on the run for their next global hit. Dance With Somebody was so retro and energetic at the same time that was played all day morning on radio, afternoon in the pub and late night at clubs. Black Saturday has definitely the dark deep 90's electro pop feel that will be appreciated by many fans worldwide. The alternative take is chill out / lounge version that includes heavy rock guitars, melodramatic strings and break beats to keep the track growing slowly inside you. David Vrong remix is superb deep tech house make over with techy drums, deep basslines and cool synth line tha runs through the whole track. The vocal sounds so dark, Gothic, mysterious and indulging that will be hard not to be captivated from its incredible electronic atmosphere. Lastly Frontload service the tough hard bouncy and banging house meets hardstyle version that big room / mainstage festivals djs will adopt for their sets. Excellent melodic breakdown with epic synths and excellent application of the vocal with touch kicks followed by the maddening and absolutely mindcrashing mindwashing party hard climax that will bring Tsunami on the dancefloor so better be careful when you play it! Fantastic Package to satisfy wide variety of audiences. Love iT
